History of Monkey Town

The original Monkey Town ran from May 2003 - December 2004. It was located in a private loft in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Emphasis was on video art showcasing works by Miranda July, Mika Rottenberg, and Golan Levin among dozens of other artists who were just emerging and flying under the radar at that time. They also hosted live music shows from Black Dice, White Magic, Dead Texan, My Best Fiend, Sayyid and Priest (Anit-Pop Consortium) and Blood on the Wall. Same set up: 4 projection screens and food. Chefs moonlighted from jobs at Gramercy Tavern, Esca and Chanterelle. There were 99 performances over 19 months.

The second Monkey Town ran from October 2005 - January 2010. It was located at 58 N. 3rd St in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Open nightly for 4 years and 4 months, a front dining room and bar were added, while the back dining room continued the original layout  -  4 screens; communal seating; 6.1 surround sound; capacity of 50. A full menu was available every night. The back space showcased video art, short films, feature-length films and documentaries; as well as live music, dance and other performance. Damo Suzuki, Sharon Van Etten, Tony Conrad, Gang Gang Dance, White Magic, The XX, Dirty Projectors, Twin Shadow and Excepter's legendary marathon shows were all illuminated in the cube, while a slew of talented filmmakers tested and stretched the margins of new cinema; including, Ryan Trecartin, Shana Moulton, R. Luke DuBois, Alexandre Singh, Cory Arcangel, Marisa Olson, Peter Burr, Michael Bell-Smith, Bruce Bickford, Tony Oursler, Forcefield, and Claude Wampler.
